Girders

I have unexplored strength.

Bit by bit have I noticed task upon task, worry upon worry. I face a day filled with obligations piled high.

The bridge does not fear the vehicles it carries day after day. Each new traveler is negligible.

Can I see my day with a correct view? The tasks, the duties — each one simple. Presented in a pile, they seem insurmountable.

Even seen together, they are no more than a steady stream of doings. If I am the bridge, then, let me not fear my own labor.

Let me see rightly, Lord.

Consider:

Can I see how powerful you have made me?
